Harnessing Computational Power to Tackle Air PollutionModeling, Simulation, and Prediction Techniques\nAuthor(s): Akhilesh Kumar Yadav, Hsi-Hsien Yang\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Springer Nature Switzerland AG, Switzerland\nImprint: Springer Nature Switzerland AG\nISBN-13: 9783032139528, 978-3032139528\nSynopsis\nThis book examines the central role of computational methods in understanding, predicting, and mitigating air pollution, a critical challenge for both public health and environmental sustainability. The book offers foundations of air pollution modeling, emphasizing computational fluid dynamics for simulating pollutant dispersion and transport in relation to urban landscapes, meteorological conditions, and airflow. These approaches are complemented by statistical methods and models that broaden the scope of air quality simulations.\n\nWhile highlighting major advances, the book also addresses persistent challenges: the demand for greater model accuracy, the need to manage u.
